There are over 1.4 million tracks available to you on Lickd, but we appreciate we’re still missing some big artists like Beyoncé, Ed Sheeran, and Taylor Swift. Our goal is to get all 25M top tracks available to you, but this requires us to get those rights from the copyright owners, which takes time.
We’re the only place you can get big-name artists right now and the only ones fighting to make more of this music available to you. By joining Lickd now you’ll help us make that happen. Help us help you!
Most importantly, connecting your YouTube channel allows us to whitelist your channel for stock music use and clear copyright claims on licensed music!
Secondly, our pricing model is built based on your average video views. This makes music affordable for everyone, even if you’re just starting your content creation journey!
Absolutely! Lickd is the first copyrighted music licensing platform that allows you to use great music AND avoid demonetization, with built-in protection from copyright claims.
As a YouTube partner, we integrate directly into YouTube’s Content ID to show you’ve got permission to use a track. If you get any claims, we’ll squash them for you – so you have nothing to worry about.
In short, no. Our ‘premium’ copyrighted music licenses do not permit the songs to be used for lyric videos or by themselves as an ‘art track’ (for example, with just an image of the album artwork, a black screen, static images, stock footage, etc).
That’s because our licenses have been created for those who need background music for their original video content. The type of videos described above are deemed not to use songs as background music for content, but simply as a way for viewers to stream the song itself. This is copyright infringement and therefore cannot be covered by our licenses. This restriction also concerns AI-generated lyric videos.
First of all, you need to be referred by a participating member of our affiliate scheme.
Secondly, if you have already had a Lickd account in the last 6 months you will not be eligible for a free trial. There are also some restrictions on channel size and country. The quickest way to find out if you’re eligible is to click any of the buttons on this page and then our plans page of the registration process will tell you if you’re not eligible and why.
You can always get in touch with our support team at support@moccasin-weasel-626391.hostingersite.com if you aren’t offered a free trial and feel you should be eligible!
